Slanderous web site

2009-08-31T11:28:10Z

Sorry if this is a bit long winded. Since 1988 i have run a small
company selling car accessories and i am extremely proud of my
customer relations and my 100% positive Ebay feedback. The problem is
that if you Google my company name, a site comes up 3rd one down of
first page, calling me a Skanky Bastard and also a scam artist etc

Which is better?

2009-08-30T22:42:51Z

screaming red 24 points font) - yuck! Too plain and I think the owner
was to lazy to bother putting any fine touches on it. So having _not_
defined what I think looks good...ha ha...
